Adjusting points/contact breakers driving me insane!

That's the one, thanks rules out that possibility👍

Made me pause for thought there but yes coils are feeding respective plugs from respective coils -phew.
I checked the continuity on coils today and have continuity on primary and secondary coil, but on checking the resistance I get around 3 ohms and 10-11k ohms across the plugs with caps off but up to 16 when I put caps on - I've read somewhere that the lower reading should be in the order of 5'ish , the upper value seems about right. They are resistor caps of 5k ohms BUT i have fitted non - resistor plugs D8EA's
My other 400/4 runs fine so I think I'll do a swap on the coils and see what happens!

So removed coils and rechecked ohms , (which were from DS but not standard ones - 'cos half the price! ) Ohms for primary coil 3ohms and secondary coil 11k ohms.
removed coils from 400/4 runner and checked them which gave 5 ohms and 15k ohms respectively, fitted to rebuild and although not running as yet, still need to fine tune timing but sounded much more powerful on attempting to start. Unfortunately I bought the coils form DS over 3 years ago so doubt if I can return them :(.
So beware the perils of pattern parts!
